Fire fox update check

Hi
i want to active the auto update for all people in the compagnies
is there a way to do this remotely ? change a setting in a file without doing a gpo ...
Thanks

You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values for prefs.
Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

I am enrolled in an online university program that uses Sakai. Fire Fox updated something that attaches computer script to my Word documents when I upload them.

sigh...this is quite idiotic, but I have found a solution. It was quite simple, really, and yet quite idiotic. I share it for all those reading so that, if you know of anyone else that did what i did, you can easily be the "hero" in their lives.
After a continued search via youtube or what have you for any possible solutions, I kept coming back to the fact that I was told by my computer that I didn't have "permission" to do the file deletion. I stumbled upon a youtube video that talked about "unlocking", "locking", certain files and what not.
Long story short, the reason why I couldn't do anything to the files that were on my desktop was due to my "locking" the desktop folder. I must have done this a while back not knowing what I was doing nor the ramifications of clicking a simple box.
I undid this by:
Opening Up Finder
then, going to MacHD --> Users --> My Account Folder
clicking on Desktop Folder, I "cmd+I"
I then, unclicked the "locked" option
I went down to the cog/settings and selected "Apply to enclosed items"
resulting then in having all my files on my desktop free accessiblity and delete-ability....
oi...at least I now know what "locking" a folder (even the desktop folder) can do to other files held within it

Yahoo tool bar was added during last fire fox update, I do not want it.

I believe when fire fox updated last week I got a yahoo tool bar. I was not asked if I wanted it. I do not want it. I have 3 search bars now as was. I want to remove it and can not find any place on computer to remove it.
How do I remove it?

The new fire fox update fubared my fire fox browser

now fire fox won't start.

I'm not absolutely certain, but I believe the Yahoo video player requires '''Shockwave For Director '''and the '''Quicktime '''plugin, neither of which you appear to have installed.
To get Shockwave For Director, go to http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
For the Quicktime plugin, go to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
I notice your Flash player is also out of date. Please update that via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Fire fox update crash

Fire fox just updated automatically and now it won"t connect to the internet. This is very frustrating as i need it for work. Fix this problem now

If you are using Windows the usual reason for not being able to connect after new Firefox update or install on Windows (not as much of a issue on Mac or Linux) is due to whatever Firewall you are using is blocking the new firefox .exe yet it may still be allowing the previous .exe version.

FROM WINDOWS (VISTA) A PROBLEM HAS CAUSED THE PROGRAM TO STOP WORKING CORRECTLY. WINDOWS WILL CLOSE THIS PROGRAM AND NOTIFY YOU IF THERE IS A SOLUTION. FIRE FOX UPDATED TO THE LATEEST, I WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE AUTO UPDATES.

You may select how and whether Firefox updates, although like most software it may be sensible to keep it up-to-date, it is more likely to remain secure and compatible with other software whilst up to date.

Do I need to stay online while Fire Fox is updating?

A Fire Fox update box appeared stating: "Fire Fox has new updates for your computer". Each time I clicked OK for the updates, I found that the process would take several hours and once done there was no notification of completion. Thus, my question: Do I need to stay online while Fire Fox is updating?

What you can do instead of the partition is create a new user for your son on (YOUR partition).
Transfer all purchases from the device to iTunes Back up the iPad , restore the device , synchronize the device.
Erase your son's partition after you are sure everything works .

Updated Fire Fox and now have an annoying horozontal black line across my screen!! Why does Fire

I updated Fire Fox to be landed with an annoying horozontal black strip across my screen. This has happened on a previous update but was fixed by disabling plugins however not this time. I think I may need to drop Fire Fox as this happens on every Fire Fox update!!!!

A toolbar like the "ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows" and other toolbars like "Ask.com" or "My Web Search" can cause this issue.

Fat Cow website is saying the editing funtion problems I am having in editing my website is due to the Fire Fox brouser. What can I do to resolve this issue.

I have had a website, advancedesdservices.com, for several years now and used their editor to completed it, Site Deluxe. Explorer would not let me open the Site Deluxe tool within Fat Cow and they suggested I load an advanced Browser such as Fir Fox. I did and it allowed me to open the tool. However with Fire Fox the editing tools in Site Deluxe do not function such as cut, paste, spell check. The Fire Fox spell check identifies miss spellings but do not allow replacement word suggestions. Fat Cow is stating that it must be an issue with Fire Fox and suggested I ask you or load another Browser. Any suggestions??

Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?
* You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
* Open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.
* Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu is check-marked.
You can enable or disable spell checking globally:
* Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"

How do I stop Fire Fox auto Updates?

all of the boxes are properly checked and it still updates. I want total control of what goes on my computer. I hate auto updates, I want to tell it when and if to update. I am about to uninstall Fire Fox and change if I can't solve this. How do I stop you from over riding my settings of NEVER check , never update ? I do not let any one or any program change anything on my computer NO MATTER WHAT! SO what gives, how do I stop you from doing it?

Have a look at [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved]

It just says Unable to connect on fire fox, i'v checked every thing even my proxy and it wont work on any sites

i'v checked my proxy and its allright and its only firefox that doesnt work google chrome and internet explorer work. this started when i downloaded fire fox 5, i'v checked your help secktion but it didn't work

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Fire Fox asks permission to update the system every time it is started.

After reinstalling Fire Fox it started asking permission to update my system. If I give permission then it starts normally. If I decline it does not start as I would expect it to do.

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
* Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
* "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
